Re: Ophelia

Looks like they raised it to 65 kts based on the radar velocities. The official forecast is almost the same as the previous one, but with a little more westward movement at the end of the period as it begins to loop. Looks like this is going to be a threat to the coast, either in the short-term if it does not drift NE as anticipated, or in the longer term as the building ridge likely will steer it back towards the west.
